First trying to answer Ushadi's question "why is it p. hydopiper and not p. 
glabra?"
Not P. glabra because species is characterized by total absence of ocheal 
cilia, whole plant also being glabrous
In image number 4, long cilia are clearly seen. Length of cilia plus 
absence of glands on ochreolae and perianth would suggest P. longiseta
